Board Game Arena

Do you ever wish you could change the rules of the game you were playing?

Now you can! In Fluxx, the cards themselves determine the current rules of the game. Yes, I said current... the game itself is an ever changing set of rules that determine how you draw cards, play cards, and even how you win!

Players start the game with three cards in hand, and on their turn they first draw a single card and then play a single card. For now, at least. The card text of the card you play affects game play moving forward. Your card might change the number of cards that can be drawn, held, or played. Or it might even change the win condition!

The 1999 Mensa Select Winner, Fluxx, is a brightly-colored game guaranteed to make your brain do back flips as you try to keep track of all of the new rules.

So grab a friend or seven and play Fluxx according to *your* rules!

HURRAY!

How did Fluxx ever win any awards for anything? It's just an overcomplicated way of rolling a dice to determine a winner. Terrible game design.

I was thinking the same and thought I might have missed something but apparently my first impression was valid - especially the winning condition to just have the right 2 cards.

If you think of Fluxx as a game to play and have fun, instead of just thinking of wining, it's a fine party game! lots of random stuff, but fun enough to laugh at your opponents or cry when you receive your share of the penalties!!! It's a fine addition in the end. more for everyone!!!

It works well as a game of chaos ... a little like "Uno" ... a good game to play for fun- and laugh at absurd situation - not a game to plan out.

Fingers crossed Looney Labs will bring Homeworlds to BGA

The subsequent variants have a lot less everything is random aspects.

The best description I've heard is that it's the game that goes on forever then suddenly ends.

I love this game! So excited to see it here on Board Game Arena! Keep 'em coming!
